Its been ages since I last updated on here and I'm exceptionally happy to say that its because there has been nothing to say. We seem to be on a nice smooth road at present and Jack is bobbing along quite nicely with everything.
He has now started at school. The first week was stressful on both myself and Jack. He cried when he got in the taxi every morning and I can honestly say that first time was one of the hardest things Ive had to do as a parent so far. Ive been there to hold the hands of all my children on their first days at school and been the first familiar face they have seen when they have finished for the day. To not be there for Jack was just heartbreaking. He was so frightened as well.
However, since then he gets in happily, almost skipping some mornings and he is loving school. He especially loves it when they do baking and is very proud to be able to show you what he has made. I will share a couple of pictures at the end of this blog of the things he has made so far.
He tells us every day about how his Kayleigh-May is and was very concerned explaining in his way that she had a sore ear.
At the moment he is going through a bit of a 'naughty' patch! He floods the toilets by switching the taps on and putting the plugs in. He will then stand at the door with his arms and legs spread to try and keep you from going in. Its naughty but we did have a little laugh last night when we got in bed that he thinks he can keep you out haha. I'm not sure whether maybe one of the children at school has a thing for flooding the sinks.
We have had a paediatric appointment since I last wrote and his EEG results have all come back normal. He said this doesn't mean that there is nothing going on but we are all happy to leave things as they are at the moment. He does still space out at times but its not quite as often as it was for that brief period. We will wait and see how that goes for now. We mentioned to them that every poo that Jack does is runny. They have put it down to a toddler diarrhoea that should sort itself out when he hits around 5. It has been tested in the past although that was back when he was 2. Again I'm happy to just plod along just for now as he is still being seen every 6 months anyway. They mentioned maybe checking his hormone levels because of his size but since he is in proportion again I think that it would be best to leave things. I really don't want him to have to be pumped with any kinds of drugs or medication when things are going OK.
His speech is still plodding along nicely. He has started to say 2 and 3 words in a row. He still cant use any fill in type words so doesn't say and, the, is or anything like that. Its literally 2 words. Its all wonderful progress though and more often than not these days I can understand what he is saying which is great for me but must make Jack feel so proud as well.
